Bengaluru Needs Long-Term Master Plan for Water, Roads
The minister, KBG, says Bengaluru needs a long-term master plan covering water, roads and sewerage. He also wants a uniform policy so agencies that dig up roads must restore them to clear standards, with costs recovered and penalties for violations.
Context
Bengaluru has long faced recurring road digging, waterlogging and water strain, partly because several agencies handle different services. A single long-term plan aims to coordinate these services instead of fixing problems one by one.
